Overall Satisfaction with Unitrends

Unitrends is our primary backup/dr platform for all organizational data. Unitrends replaced an antiquated and prohibitively expensive solution the company maintained for over 5 years. Currently our Unitrends appliance protects ~20TB of mission critical data including operational flat file structures and SQL EHR patient data. Unitrends provides a cost efficient backup solution with easy administration for my personnel.
  • Easy administration
  • Simplified backup set creation
  • Good reporting functionality
  • Frequent agent updates can be burdensome for my technical staff
  • Have had issue in the past with Unitrends support following up on active cases.
  • Lowered monthly spend on backup by 23% while more than doubling backup drive space.
While evaluating many other backup solution providers (Asigra, Cisco, IBM, Dell, HP) Unitrends provided the best bang for the buck. Additionally, our Unitrends provider, Cordicate IT, made the transition to Unitrends a success.

Unitrends is well suited for organization without advanced in-house technical staff. Unitrends is very easy to setup through administrative interface. I would say that Unitrends is not well suited for small organizations because of initial capital appliance expenditure.
